RE: where can i find a good free firewall

Oh ok.
Maybe Comodo http://www.comodo. . .rewall.php? It also includes quite a lot of other features, which you may or may not like. There's probably a lot of other good firewalls out there, but as I just use the Windows firewall, I don't know that much about them.

RE: where can i find a good free firewall

Keep in mind, a firewall doesn't do what most people think it does (at least not on modern networks). If you are behind a router, the NAT will work as a full firewall by design and protect you from anything coming in over the internet. Modern software firewalls are really only for LAN defense, and possibly blocking applications on your machine. As long as you trust your network, it's not really necessary to worry about it.

The irony of man's condition is that the deepest need is to be free of the anxiety of death and annihilation; but it is life itself which awakens it, and so we must shrink from being fully alive.http://www.stealt. . .

Though a software firewall is still useful when using an untrusted network. Also, NAT will cease to be helpful when ipv6 becomes the standard.

Ehhh, I dunno. I think NAT will be there for a while longer, simply out of old habits and the lack of desire for people to adapt to the new standard, even once Ipv6 is implemented.
